⁶ But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh, who were among those who had spied out the land, tore their clothes; ⁷ and they spoke to all the congregation of the children of Israel, saying: ^(A)“The land we passed through to spy out is an exceedingly good land. ⁸ If the Lord ^(B)delights in us, then He will bring us into this land and give it to us, ^(C)‘a land which flows with milk and honey.’ ⁹ Only ^(D)do not rebel against the Lord, ^(E)nor fear the people of the land, for ^(F)they^[a] are our bread; their protection has departed from them, ^(G)and the Lord is with us. Do not fear them.”

²⁴ But My servant ^(A)Caleb, because he has a different spirit in him and ^(B)has followed Me fully, I will bring into the land where he went, and his descendants shall inherit it.

^30 (A)Except for Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun, you shall by no means enter the land which I ^[a]swore I would make you dwell in.

^36 (A)except Caleb the son of Jephunneh; he shall see it, and to him and his children I am giving the land on which he walked, because ^(B)he ^[a]wholly followed the Lord.’

⁸ Nevertheless ^(A)my brethren who went up with me made the ^[a]heart of the people melt, but I wholly ^(B)followed the Lord my God.

⁹ So Moses swore on that day, saying, ^(A)‘Surely the land ^(B)where your foot has trodden shall be your inheritance and your children’s forever, because you have wholly followed the Lord my God.’
